Festive 500 In-one-go

Riding the 2013 Festive 500 in one big fat ride from Paris (FR) to Haarlem (NL) - #inonegoSomewhere during Festive500 2012 my tired tortured mind I was wondering if it would be physically possible to do Festive 500 in one big ride and “get it over with”. For a year I had chewed on that idea, I convinced a few friends to try it with me. And that’s where this brilliant (and by brilliant, i mean stupid) idea to ride Festive 500 'in one go’ came from. - Bas Rotgans -

If you feel, that after watching this video https://vimeo.com/83397896, it is a brilliantly stupid plan to do the Festive 500 in in go, then you are invited.

We will start on wednesday 28th of december for our 500km adventure at 11am, so everyone has time to come well prepared to the startline.There will be a route, feedstops, a lot of fun and some suffering. We will arrive Thursday in the early morning back at the Clubhouse in Amsterdam for celebrations.

If you feel 500km is to crazy you can join us for half of the ride and take a train back home. We will leave as a group and want to finish as a group, but if you really can't keep up, be prepared to find your own way home. At 21:00 pm we are over half way and by then you can still take a train back to Amsterdam.
